 ⚙️ Industry-Ready VEO 3 AI Video Prompt in JSON: Copy, Customize, Create...  Struggling to get the AI video you actually pictured in your head?  When you have a complicated scene with multiple elements, specific actions, and branding, a simple text prompt often fails. The AI gets confused and mashes everything together.  I ran into this problem constantly until I started using JSON to write my VEO 3 AI Video prompts.  By structuring the commands, you give the AI a clear, organized list of instructions it can actually follow.  I just wrote a JSON prompt template specifically for my industry. It makes creating complex scenes much more predictable.  Go ahead and copy it, but change the elements, setting, and brand name to make it yours.  Comment ‘AI’ below and I’ll send you the full prompt. ~ Adrian Lee @adrianvideoimage  #AIVideo #PromptEngineering #GenerativeAI #ContentCreation #MarketingTips

I recently got my hands on the Ulanzi MT-84 Magnetic Tripod Stand. Here’s a quick breakdown from my unboxing and testing:  First Impressions & Unboxing Right out of the box, the MT-84 feels solid. It’s compact and lightweight, which is what you need when you’re on the move.  Setup & Features The setup is fast:  - Extend the Legs: The tripod base is sturdy and provides a stable platform.   - Telescopic Pole: It extends to a good height, 1.53m, giving you flexibility for different angles, whether you're shooting from a desk or need a higher perspective.  - Magnetic Mount: The magnetic connection is strong and secure. My phone snaps right on, perfectly centered. No more fiddling with clamps or brackets.  Testing it Out I used it in a few different scenarios:  - As a desktop tripod: Perfect for shooting talking head videos for my tutorials. The adjustable head makes it easy to get the angle just right.  - As a handheld selfie stick: When...

​I wasted my AI credits so you don't have to. ​My goal was to create that cool IKEA-style "empty room assembly" effect using the Veo 3 AI video generator.  My initial prompts using natural language were a complete failure.  ​Then I switched to the structured JSON format.  ​Instead of just talking to the AI in natural language, JSON lets you give it a precise blueprint. It gives you direct control over every detail, like: ​→ Subject: What's in the scene. → Action: What it's doing. → Context: Where it's happening. → Style: The look and feel (e.g., "stop motion," "hyper-realistic"). → Technicals: Even specific lighting and camera angles.  ​The best part is that the prompt is clean, easy to read, and reusable for other projects.  The difference in results was night and day.  ​I've shared the exact JSON prompt I used in the link below in the comments. Feel free to copy it and try it for yourself.  ​What are your go-to tricks for getting bett...

This week, I experimented with AI video tools. Here are the key takeaways. AI Video Experiments I tested Google's Veo 3 AI video generator on a few projects and learned a lot about writing effective prompts. Making a Product Talk: I made a TikTok Shop product sell itself. The key was a very specific prompt. The AI added a mouth and eyes to the product and made it speak on its own. See the Prompt here... https://youtube.com/shorts/JXx08ysKt9 U Prompting for Motion: I tried to create a video of a fan blowing objects out of a room. The AI interpreted "blow" as "explode." This taught me to use simple, direct verbs like "slide" for better results. See the Prompt here... https://youtube.com/shorts/4oepQyHg12 4 Combining AI Clips: I created a video of a Cybertruck battling a T-Rex. The AI didn't get it perfect, so I edited three different AI-generated clips together in CapCut. This shows that AI is a powerful tool, but it still needs human creativity t...

 👄 How I Turned My TikTok Shop Product into a Smooth-Talking Sales Star with Google Veo 3...  Ever wished your product could pitch itself like a seasoned sales rep, leaving you free to sip coffee in peace? ☕ I used Google Veo 3 to make my TikTok Shop product talk, charm, and sell itself—and it’s easier than you think.  Here’s how I did it, with a few laughs along the way. 😄 Step 1: Get into Veo 3 I signed in to my Google AI Pro account (yep, it’s a paid plan). Headed to Gemini, selected ‘Video,’ and started a new chat. Step 2: Upload Your Product Pic I uploaded a photo of my product with me holding it. I actually grabbed a freeze-frame from a video for that dynamic seamless continuity.  Step 3: Nail the Prompt This is where the magic happens. My first prompt? Wasted AI credits. I prompted [Add two eyes and one mouth to the weighing scale, and make the weighing scale say, "I'm the smart kitchen scale, weighing your food and judging your snacks!"] ...And Veo 3 had me...

"When VEO 3 Turns Your Fan into a Chaos Machine" As a Generative AI user, I’m always exploring how to push AI tools like VEO 3 to create dynamic, realistic videos. My latest experiment? Getting a fan to "blow" objects out of a room, one by one, until it’s empty, with my brand “Adrian Video Image” framed on the wall. Sounds simple, right? Spoiler: it wasn’t! 😅 The fails were both frustrating and hilarious, but they taught me (and hopefully you) valuable lessons about prompt engineering. Here’s the journey—and why the flops are as important as the wins. The Goal: Create a video where a spinning fan pushes papers, a pillow, a chair, a sofa, and curtains out of a living room, leaving only the fan and a branded picture frame. I wanted ASMR sounds (rustling papers, scraping furniture) for a cinematic feel. The Fails (Watch for a Laugh!): My early attempts were… wild. Papers burst into the air like confetti. The fan toppled over. Furniture slid toward the fan. Objects app...
